without seeing your code it's a bit of guess work...
you could try this
use the callback function initCallback
assuming that you are showing 5 items and your external control has id =
btn-show-next, attaching an event something along these lines ought to help
you.

*$('#btn-show-next').click(function(){
                carousel.options.scroll = 5;
                carousel.next();
                return false;
        });*


post your code if you need more help.
